Go launcher email notification - Verizon Droid Charge

With the stock launcher (tw launcher) the stock email program icon will overlay the number of new items. This does not happen in go launcher. How do i get the icon to show # of new messages?

I've since tried a few of the other launchers and found that notifications are lacking in them.
Does anyone know if there is a way to get any of the launchers to display notifications the same way as the default launcher? I like seeing the red number on the email icon.
Also is there a way to get the voicemail icon to display the number in any launcher including stock? I hate having to watch the notification bar for an increase in the number (up from 3) indicating that i need to drop the bar to see what additional notifications are available.

Have you tried the Go Notification plugin for Go Launcher. I don't use it, but it sounds like what you are looking for.

I hadnt. I'll have to give it a try as I did like go launcher a lot

The go launcher notification plug-in is what i'm lookin for except that it needs notifications for email, phone calls, voice mail... So disapointing.

I founda better way to sum it up. Basically is there a way to apply icon packs without a home replacement.

there are probably other apps that can do it too. FO is the easiest, Tasker has other great uses to make it worth buying.

[Q] Unread SMS and G-mail counter? Black Ice Rom

So i was running the Bionix Frost rom and i was able to make it show me how many unread SMS and g-mail messages i had on top of the icons. Not in the notification bar.
Now i moved onto Black Ice and i can't for the life of me find the settings for this option.
anyone have any way of making this happen again? Or maybe Krylon could see this and let me know if it isn't possible?
Its launcher pro. You need to go into the launcher pro preference

replacing icons

i dont use the builtin messaging app on my phone, i use chompsms. is there a way to replace the messaging icon next to contacts and applications with the chompsms icon?
I think it depends on the launcher you use.

It has been ages since I used the TW launcher, but I believe you open your app drawer, press menu, change to customizable grid, then menu then edit... then maybe just drag it down there.
If you are using another launcher, it would be considerably easier.
EDIT, yeah, just booted up, that is how you do it....
You can then change it back to alphabetical if that is your preference, the dock icons will remain the same as you changed them.

Dock stock Icon

Are you asking to change the stock email app present in the bottom with another email app? Am I right?

dock options
If you like the stock TW Launcher you can change the email icon by going into your app drawer and tap your menu button thats at the bottom of your phone. Then click edit, you'll see your dock at the bottom zoom out and move to the middle. Now you can long press on the mail icon once you feel the vibrate you can move it back to the app section. Then you can move another app you want down to the dock.
If you don't like the TW Launcher you should try Go Launcher EX , its free in the android market, and its very customizable.
Hope that helps

Make Msg icon open non default Sms app

Is there a way to make the ICS green message icon open GO SMS instead of the stock app? I like the icon cause it flows with the homescreen, and the go sms one is ugly haha. Just wondering if theres a way to keep the stock sms icon but re route to open go sms? i dont really want to install a home launcher either.
Just edit the icon. Get Gosms apk and replace the icon.

Thank you!
This is also can be set if Android detects multiple SMS apps, will ask you to set default.
